    ## Pre-requisite: You have to know your last commit message from your deleted branch.
    git reflog
    # Search for message in the list
    # a901eda HEAD@{18}: commit: <last commit message>

    # Now you have two options, either checkout revision or HEAD
    git checkout a901eda
    # Or
    git checkout HEAD@{18}

    # Create branch
    git branch recovered-branch

    # You may want to push that back to remote
    git push origin recovered-branch:recovered-branch
